Fair for senders, worth it for travellers
The sender pays the traveller a carrying price. Carrykin suggests a fair price; you agree the final price together. During the free trial the sender pays the traveller directly and Carrykin takes no payment and no fee.
Cost per kg is negotiable – you can negotiate mutually.
Suggested prices
| Weight | Suggested price | Per kg | Carrykin fee | Traveller receives |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kg | €10 | €10 | €0 | €10 |
| 2 kg | €18 | €9 | €0 | €18 |
| 3 kg | €25 | €8.33 | €0 | €25 |
| 5 kg | €40 | €8 | €0 | €40 |
| 10 kg | €70 | €7 | €0 | €70 |
- The price is negotiable – agree it directly with the traveller in the app (offer, counter-offer, accept).
- Document delivery may be priced differently from parcels.
- Items that need extra attention, such as fragile “handle with care” items, may cost extra.
Per-kg prices fall as weight grows: even 1 kg needs a meeting, a package check and a delivery. There is no minimum or maximum for now – senders can offer any price; travellers can accept or suggest another price.
Carrykin fee
7.5% of the carrying price, at least €1 and at most €7.50. Paid out of the carrying price – the sender pays exactly the agreed amount.
Paid directly between you
During the free trial payments do not go through Carrykin. Sender and traveller agree in the chat how to transfer the money (bank transfer, UPI, cash at the handover …) and pay each other directly. Carrykin does not hold or guarantee this money; the handover and delivery codes still confirm every step.
Kin Points on top
100 points for the traveller and 50 for the sender after every verified delivery, plus a first-delivery bonus. Redeem them for partner rewards.

Prices are the starting hypotheses for our 2026 pilot and may change. They cover the carrying service only – never the value of the items.
